Muscle Activation Techniques works perfect on rotational sports like golf since it targets, and improves specific muscles required for a powerful and consistent golf swing. Muscle Activation Techniques (MAT) is an exercise method that tests for individual muscle weakness and when found, activates them through a simple technique to restore both their flexibility and strength. Muscle Activation Techniques is a great tool to improve your golf swing by increasing overall body flexibility, mobility, stability and strength all in one session. Watch video
The biggest advantage of Muscle Activation Techniques (MAT) for the Golf Swing Watch video
Muscle Activation Techniques is a separate exercise regimen unlike any other exercise method. It specifically addresses individual muscle function at the neurological level. The key difference is that although MAT may seem like a massage, its benefits are much more powerful because of its deliberate intention to increase muscle strength and improve joint flexibility (range of motion) at the same time.
Yes! Athletic golfers aged 18 to 35 with a limited history of only soft tissue injuries (muscle strains) and are able to correct their body movements with their enhanced strength and flexibility (range of motion) courtesy of Muscle Activations Techniques can expect to see changes within 14 days on the golf course.
Muscle Activation Techniques Golf Performance FAQs
The hip pivot or hip rotation is a fundamental movement in your golf swing. Muscle Activation Techniques increases hip flexibility and strength producing better trunk and shoulder rotation resulting in faster clubhead speed in your golf swing.
If you slice or pull the ball frequently, it means that your club’s path and club face are not in a good position prior to and at impact. All club movement in your golf swing is dictated by your overall body movement. An inability of your body to move properly due to joint or muscle limitations caused by tightness, strain, pain or injury easily can cause you to slice or pull the golf ball no matter how many golf lessons you take. Muscle Activations Techniques fixes your club path and club face at impact by allowing your body to move with fluidity and better sequenced straightening your ball flight.
Muscle Activation Techniques systematically improves flexibility, mobility and strength in four specific areas of the body required during the golf swing to keep the club on a desirable path to impact. These four areas working effectively produce coordinated lower body stability, stronger core and faster clubhead speed resulting in longer ball distance.
You must transition and sequence your body properly on the downswing to create good lag. A sway or reverse pivot in your backswing will prevent you from creating lag. Both positions are caused by tightness at one or more of the following body areas: foot/ankle, hips, low back, torso and shoulders. Muscle Activation Techniques restores the range of motion (ROM) and strength at these areas creating proper body movements during the backswing and transition making lag a natural by product.
Yes, Muscle Activation Techniques increases overall flexibility, “looseness” and strength allowing the body to move with more balance, fluidity and sequencing to generate faster clubhead speed and longer ball flight.
Muscle Activation Techniques individually tests and strengthens each torso muscle (e.g. Oblique, Lats, etc.) responsible for powerful trunk rotation connecting the hips, trunk and shoulders during the golf swing.
A cornerstone of Muscle Activation Techniques is identification of tight muscles which is an indication of muscle weakness somewhere else in the body. Muscle Activation Techniques targets those weak muscles and strengthens them immediately to create a sensation of “looseness” which you experience right away.
Yes. There are many techniques, methods and aids to help putt better. The one tool that needs to move efficiently, quietly and with finesse is the body. A stable lower body, controlled trunk rotation coupled with shoulder motion and quiet hands are the body’s contribution to putting. The Muscle Activation Techniques process can effectively create a body that moves correctly to cause smooth torso and shoulder motion and a better putting stroke.
Your balance in the golf swing is a key factor often overlooked to increase sweet spot contacts. Muscle Activation Techniques restores muscular balance between the following areas: lower body and upper body, right and left side of body; front and back of the body. Muscle Activations Techniques restores and improves muscular balance with symmetry throughout the body for a properly sequenced easy golf swing producing more club face centered impacts.
A sway in a golf swing causes many bad things on the downswing and inconsistent ball striking! Most golfers will sway due to tightness at one or more of the following body areas: foot/ankle, hips, low back, torso and shoulders. Muscle Activation Techniques both screens and restores adequate flexibility to the body areas that frequently contribute to a sway. Once these areas are better, proper retraining of the backswing body movement produces a solid and well posted top of backswing position.
Muscle Activation Techniques for Golf Injuries FAQs
When you experience tightness or pain in your golf swing, be aware that it is negatively affecting your impact position because every swing your body makes is different in order to avoid the tight or painful areas. The Muscle Activation Techniques process alleviates your tightness which is usually creating pain! We have identified four areas of the body that must produce sufficient rotation for the hips, torso and shoulders to move smoothly during the golf swing. MAT identifies, restores and strengthens the weak muscles creating sufficient rotation in the body eliminating tightness and pain.
Low back pain, tightness or discomfort will significantly affect your performance because your body is going to avoid pain during a golf swing. If not, a severe tear or rupture injury is probable. Muscle Activation Techniques identifies the four specific areas of the body that cause low back pain and restores those areas to their normal function alleviating low back pain in the golf swing due to improved flexibility, mobility and core strength.
Muscles Activations Techniques effectively opens hip flexibility and increases hip muscle strength at the same time! The hip pivot or hip rotation in the golf swing is fundamental in the golf swing because it connects the lower and upper body. Because Muscle Activation Techniques pinpoints and eliminates other areas of the body (e.g. feet, shoulders) that also cause limited hip flexibility, it provides a quicker solution to improve overall hip motion and strength.
Pain at the elbow is a clear SYMPTOM that some other place in the body is where the real PROBLEM is located causing the symptom of pain at the elbow. Golf is a rotational sport and when the body is unable to produce rotation in all the places required, the loss of rotation will be made up usually at the elbow or knee! Muscle Activation Techniques is great for finding exactly where the loss of rotation has occurred and restoring it which immediately decreases and eliminates elbow pain.

We use Muscle Activation Techniques for golf injuries to find limitations in one of the four areas of the body required to produce a powerful yet effortless swing. Pain at the shoulder indicates one or more of these areas is limited requiring the shoulder to compensate thus causing pain. Once the limited areas are identified, they are strengthened with MAT and pain is eliminated as a by product of muscles working properly.
Muscle Activation Techniques is your best option to eliminate your knee pain quickly. MAT assesses the areas of the body that create rotational movement of the hips, torso and shoulders during the golf swing. Knee pain is usually a result of one or more of these areas losing rotational motion. Once the problem area(s) is found, MAT strengthens those muscles increasing the lost motion and eliminating the need for compensation at the knee. That eliminates your knee pain.
